Jul 9, 2007 Via Ughsmash. Holy crap this is awful! Pours to a transparent orangish pale yellow body with a very thin white head. The aroma is foul. Ick! Icky artificial (at least that’s what my palate is telling me) apricots. The flavor also has an artificial apricot component and wheat. The palate is over-carbonated and sticky. This was not good.

Jul 8, 2007 This one is sparking yellow gold. The nose is pure fruity apricot, sugars, other fruit juice, like kool aid, peaches, and some mild hops. This apricot beer is tasting like it should, mainly like peaches and apricots, with a touch of bitter hops, and some sugary malts. More apricot than any other beer of the same name I usually drink. Good.

Jul 8, 2007 Bottle, thanks Ken! Poured a clear brighter golden with a short cap of white head. Aroma was very much of apricots with some sweetness and some tartness..nothing I really wanted in a beer, and it didn’t work so well. Flavor also had the apricot tartness.. somewhat sour and damn near offensive.. left a nasty vegetal and apricot finish. Light-bodied, but sticky with the unpleasant flavors at the end. Wow.. this was quite bad.

Jun 30, 2007 Bottle. Pours a light slightly hazy yellow with diminishing white head. Aroma is apricot juice, and not much else. Taste is much of the same. Fairly watery. Nothing offensive here, but nothing to make me want another one either.

Jun 26, 2007 Sample from kmweaver. Clear straw body with a tiny white head. The aroma is heavy, fake, apricot syrup. The flavor is sweet with lots more of that apricot jolly rancher syrup. Light body is thin, watery and moderately carbonated. This was really bad.

Jun 20, 2007 Not sure what these folks are thinking. with only a 2.7 out of 5. Color is golden with minimal head. Aroma is guess what-apricot. Apricot overwhelms the flavor but I am not an apricot eater but the mix is unique and refreshing. toasty maltiness at the end

Jun 19, 2007 Updated: Aug 27, 2007Sampled on draft at the Rivertowne pub in North Huntingdon PA this beer poured a pale golden color with a small white head. The aroma was very strong sweet apricot. The flavor was strong sweet apricot and only a hint of dry malts underneath. Tasty, but too syrupy sweet and not enough of an actual "beer" flavor to it.

Jun 18, 2007 12oz bottle. Pours a clear, pale honey-orange color; off-white head with patchy lacing. Apricot marmalade and tea-like malts in the aroma. Medium mouthfeel: fake smarties / candy necklace sugariness; artificial apricot and fruit flavoring; unremarkable. Light, sugary finish. My apologies to Ughsmash for sending him a bottle of this. Fluffy sugar.
